New Home Construction in Thibodaux, LA
Trusted New Home Construction for Thibodaux Homeowners
Thibodaux is one of those rare south Louisiana cities that feels both established and growing. New subdivisions extend toward Schriever and Highway 20, while infill lots open up in older neighborhoods near Nicholls State. Whichever lot you are building on, Foret Construction & Roofing LLC handles the whole build.
We are a Lafourche Parish general contractor that takes new construction projects from slab to shingle — framing, roofing, exterior, interior, every trade in between. One contractor responsible for the whole build, one phone number when you have a question.
Every new home we build in Thibodaux can be finished with an IBHS FORTIFIED roof — locking in hurricane-grade roof construction and Louisiana wind & hail insurance discounts from day one of ownership.

Questions & Answers
New Home Construction FAQs for Thibodaux Homeowners
Can you build on both new subdivision lots and infill lots in Thibodaux?
Yes. We build on new subdivision lots out toward Schriever and Highway 20 as well as infill lots in established neighborhoods near Nicholls State. Older infill lots sometimes come with utility, drainage, or setback quirks, so we assess the specific site before finalizing the plan.
Will a new Thibodaux home come with a FORTIFIED roof?
It can. Every home we build can be finished with an IBHS FORTIFIED roof. Building it in from the start locks in hurricane-grade roof construction and the Louisiana wind and hail insurance discount from your first day of ownership, which is far simpler than retrofitting later.
Who pulls the permits for new construction in Thibodaux?
We do. A build inside Thibodaux city limits goes through the city permit office; a lot in the surrounding unincorporated area goes through Lafourche Parish. We handle whichever applies, along with the inspections, as part of the project.
How long does it take to build a new home in Thibodaux?
Timelines depend on size, design complexity, weather, and how quickly selections and permits come together, so we will not quote a specific number of days up front. We will give you a realistic schedule once we have reviewed your plans, and we keep you updated as the build progresses.
